AOL search is now powered by Bing, in case you were still using it

Microsoft has officially added AOL to its list of company that use its Bing engine to power its search features on both its web and mobile properties. The agreement was first announced in 2015 but officially went live on January 1, 2016.

Microsoft says:

All major Bing Ads ad products are enabled for AOL search traffic worldwide to provide marketers with additional high-quality volume and ways to reach their desired audience. Our partnership with AOL brings additional scale and opportunity to advertisers and marketers. Today, 1 in 5 searches happen on Bing.com, and by providing Bing search results for the number 3 (Yahoo) and 5 (AOL) search providers in the US, Bing powers close to one-third of US PC web searches.

Bing's nice but still not like Google, both in the good and bad side. I use bing anyway and I also use google, just to get from both. But, bing's growing. This move should make it more wide for users now. Good work Microsoft.

I still use aol 8.0 on my laptop witch is a Compaq Presario 2500 and it runs windows XP sp1 with norten antivirus 2003 works fine use office 2003 with a floppy when I work so I can transfer it to other computers with floppys

There should be a change. Bing search must be changed to MSN SEARCH or Microsoft Live Search powered by Bing engine. I think this will be better for many people to realize that it's actually a product from world's greatest software company, Microsoft. In India many of my friend still asks me what's Bing after using Windows 10 and enjoying Windows 10. They somewhat love Microsoft but can't recognize the Microsoft products due to their naming and google's internet dominance here.

Bing really needs a marketing push to get SEOs, businesses, schools, etc to keep their listings updated in Bing. This is probably the biggest hole I find as a default Bing user. Local businesses are always careful to log in and give Google all their info, but the data on Bing is not as up to date or complete. If business owners realized how many searches go through Bing, they would probably go to the effort.

Daniel Rubino, you see that Bing is doing great? There was no need to publish that article about letting Cortana search with Google. That was blasphemy. LOL. Oh and according to 80% of searchers not coming from Bing, this article and many more now shows that Bing has about 40% of all searches. Boo yah. Bing rocks

10 minutes ago, I searched for skypesetupfull.exe on google, it just found junk. When I searched on bing, it provided me the direct download link. I just clicked it and downloaded skype on winXP. You can try it right now.

I suggested Bing to a co-worker after googles human checker CAPTCHA kicked in and that generated a laugh. I use Bing 95% of the time and laugh all the way to bank when I cash in my Bing points. Got the Xbox one elite controller for $140 and a bunch of other stuff over the years

You're right! In Lithuania (Eastern EU), it basically gives me middle finger instead of any results at all. It's somewhat useful if you search for something in US, but if you try to find anything in my region it just fails miserably, unlike Google, which I'm forced to use now. I can't understand why all WP goodies have to be US-only or available in like 7 biggest countries ? Why can't we use UK or US versions (talking about Cortana here) while we get proper version for our region ?
